8.7 GCC Lesson 5A - Summative Check-in - Sherri Dziadzio | Library

While watching the video below, you may want to collect evidence (takes notes) in your ISN to be used later on the test.

Throughout this lesson, you’ve learned about many different ways that humans contribute to greenhouse gas production. One way to understand these contributions is to break down the release of fossil fuels by economic sectors. Industry is one sector that can release greenhouse gases. The industrial sector also produces many different types of useful materials, including cement.

1

What is a fossil fuel?

1

What substances, when mixed together, make up cement?

1

Why is the process of making cement bad for our environment? Click all that apply.

1

In Industry, what is the major source contributing to Global Climate Change?

1

Which source contributes the most CO2 into our atmosphere?

1

What would be the "game changer" for our climate when using cement?

1

Check all the reasons why we choose to use limestone vs using alternative materials.

Consider the following claim:
Cement production is a human activity that is a MAJOR factor affecting Earth’s mean surface temperature over the past century.

2

In order to determine if a claim is correct, evidence is required.
Asking questions is one way to identify the evidence that can be used to support a claim.
Below, write two questions someone could ask to identify evidence to support this claim.
Number them as you ask them.

3

List 3 pieces of evidence you would use from the video, notes from your ISN and/or vocabulary words to make your list. Number each piece of evidence and use complete sentences.

5

Write a paragraph using CER format to support or reject the claim above. Be sure to write the claim, list 3 pieces of evidence and include a conclusion sentence. (5 sentences total)

Using your ISN (if necessary), answer the following true or false questions.

1

Global warming is any significant change in the climate lasting for an extended period of time.

1

Nitrous Oxide, methane and CO2 are all contributors to Global Climate Change.

1

Transportation is the greatest contributor to global climate change.

1

Deforestation causes an increase in CO2 because when treees are cut down, nothing absorbs the carbon.

1

Global temperatures have decreased over the past 100 years.

1

Using the graph above, when would you expect temperatures to be coolest?

1

Using the graph above, when would you expect temperatures to be coolest?

5

Using the bar graph above, explain how the global production of cement might have a negative impact on the climate. Feel free to use evidence from the video you first watched as well. 4-5 sentences is required.
